Britney Spears and Sam Asghari have settled their divorce, with court documents revealing the dissolution of their 14-month marriage.
The settlement was filed in a Los Angeles court by attorneys representing both parties, indicating that the divorce, which was described as “uncontested,” includes a written agreement on property division and spousal support.
Asghari, who initiated the divorce proceedings last August citing irreconcilable differences, first met Spears on the set of her “Slumber Party” music video in 2016.
The couple got engaged in September 2021 and married in a high-profile ceremony in Los Angeles in June 2022, which was notably interrupted by an unexpected appearance from Spears’ brief 2004 husband.
At the time of announcing their separation, Asghari expressed his ongoing respect and love for Spears, stating his wishes for her well-being. Spears, reflecting on their six-year relationship, expressed her shock and emphasized her privacy, stating, “It’s honestly nobody’s business.”
The legal documents hint at a prenuptial agreement to be “ironclad,” ensuring Asghari would not claim any of Spears’ pre-marital assets. This kind of arrangement is typical among celebrities with significant wealth discrepancies to protect their assets in the event of a divorce.
Details in the filing were sparse, but it was noted that Asghari would relinquish any claims to spousal support outside of the settlement agreement. The specifics of the legal fees and other financial arrangements are contained within their private contract.
